That's right: I won the fight against Sheffield Hallam University. However, I can't find it within me to rejoice over this much-awaited news as I live through the most horrific times of my life. Northern Gaza, where I hail from, is being annihilated NOW. shorturl.at/SVFvn

How propaganda works. A 🧵 As the genocide in Gaza is almost completely ignored by Western media and real atrocities are treated as fake, elsewhere fake atrocities are treated as real. Last night's hooliganism in Amsterdam is a perfect example..

How many times have we seen photos like this from Gaza? These will be the images in history books, but you won’t be able to say you didn’t know.

“The image of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya surrendering to the army is rife with humiliation, even if the world outside Gaza races to glamorize it as a badge of pride. The man has lost his voice [advocating]. God knows how they’re subjugating him as the world rejoices at his gait.”

"In the wake of a ceasefire, many will try to force the discourse into a binary of victory and defeat. But as the dust settles, a true picture emerges: one of the fragility of the Israeli colony, and the transformative power of resistance." - Abboud Hamayel (Abdaljawad Omar) ow.ly/LjVp50UIV7A

You can imagine them now, Israelis I mean, standing at the edge of Gaza’s trembling horizon, peering into a sea of life that refuses to drown, to Gaza that refuses to be swallowed by the sea. They see the faces of those who have returned—bodies caked with dust but washed clean in

Our Director Dima Khalidi argues in the The Nation today that universities’ complete surrender to Trump’s ever-harsher crackdowns on the student movement “will not release them from the administration’s crosshairs. Columbia has learned that lesson 400 million times over”.

When postmodern thinkers were singing the praises of our ethical responsibility to the Other blah blah, it was rarely mentioned they excluded Palestinians from their orbit. Can’t believe racist thinkers like Levinas were celebrated for so long. Academia, you’re also responsible!
